Chapter 162 Sword Light
"No need, no need, I'm fine. I just don't know if you would be willing to go to the snow mountain."

I heard that a secret vault was discovered there. Shen Suiren left the communication jade on the second floor, while she herself watched the images in the main hall on the first floor.

On the screen, Elder Woxiang and two other monks can be clearly seen flying toward the waterfall.

Little Fox King laughed twice: "No wonder, he didn't team up with us in the first place."

Do you think the Rain God knew he was coming to the Secret Palace?

Shen Suiren propped his chin up with two fingers. "He probably doesn't know that Elder Woxiang is a formation master with access to the formation sect's secret chamber. He will definitely investigate."

However, I arrived first and won't let anyone else in for now.

"Jade bones serve as spoons, and wine as the condiment."

At the beginning of the year, that ascended Thunder Dao Lord set up such a bizarre teleportation method. How many people do you think could do it at the same time? The Little Fox King thought that the two of them being able to enter was purely a coincidence, and that it wasn't because the beginning of the year would break the formation.

Moreover, seeing that Sui Chu activated the central array pattern without hesitation, the three people who were sucked into the waterfall were teleported away before they could even see the full view of the Water Curtain Cave.

The female swordsman in green, left alone, ran out of the cave at the back and said angrily, "Why is it that everyone else finds the correct teleportation as soon as they arrive?"

Upon hearing this, the little fox king couldn't help but laugh even louder: "Sui Chu, you are so hypocritical, your words and actions are completely different."

"People are complicated," Shen Suiren couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

Then he said, "I sent them to the vicinity of the snow mountain because I planned to send you to the other side as well."

"Next..." She leaned close to the little fox king's ear and gave him some instructions.

He then quickly released several jade boxes obtained from the Dragon King's space, rummaged through them, and handed them to her. "Be careful. If you can hide, then hide. I will guide you to avoid both the human and demon sides. We'll stay in touch at all times."

But if you really encounter a powerful opponent, smash the talisman with all your might.

"Are you planning to make me use up all the talismans you've accumulated during your ten years of seclusion?" The little fox king watched as she kept taking out box after box of talismans from her storage ring.

“There are plenty. The one I gave you is a Nascent Soul stage talisman, drawn by my grandmaster.”

"Here, there's another one for the Nascent Soul stage, but I don't want you to use it." Shen Suiren also erased the divine sense from another invisible ring filled with food, along with the ancestor's jade bone, and gave it to her to use.

Not long after, she sent the little fox king to a dense forest south of the secret palace, completely opposite to the snow mountain.

The two could communicate without any obstacles, whether through a soul contract or by sending messages via a jade talisman.

The Little Fox King quickly selected a small tree of low grade, used a teleportation talisman to reach the base of the tree, and quickly planted the array flags to activate the array.

He hid the treasure map he had prepared at the beginning of the year, along with a ninth-grade spiritual fruit and half a body cultivation technique, in the formation and retreated to the ground.

Finally, they didn't forget to leave a mark on the tree, as if afraid the cultivators wouldn't see it.

Shen Suiren rubbed his forehead: "A-Luan, there's no need to be so deliberate."

"Yes, that's necessary. If the demon race arrives first and there are no obvious markers, they really won't be able to find us." The little fox king activated the array at the base of the tree, and a beam of green light flashed for a few moments before disappearing abruptly.

“A cultivator has already seen you. You should leave quickly.” Shen Suiren pointed out a route that no one had taken before, and then teleported the female cultivator in green robes who was trying to break through all laws with a single sword in the Water Curtain Cave to the dense forest.

The female cultivator landed right in front of the tree marked by the Little Fox King, and was honored to be the first to discover the target of the blue-light cultivator's attack.

As Shen Suiren watched the two people's magic and sword light successfully shatter the tree, more people and demons arrived.

"Well, the little fox king's thoughtful gesture was in vain."

However, these few were more cautious. They only watched others fight and did not blindly take action. They also constantly used their divine sense to survey the entire dense forest.

However, no one looked at the broken tree roots.

Shen Suiren really wanted to help them, but she restrained herself from doing anything unnecessary.

Looking at his own little fox king, he had already flown to a location he had designated and was preparing to find a tree he couldn't hug to hide his treasure when three demon cultivators flew by quickly.

The last one paused, looked back, and moved to the green grass that the little fox king had conjured.

His companion in front of him called out, "Ah Fox, why are you stopping? Let's hurry up and finish picking the nine-leaf lotus seeds so we can properly go into seclusion."

This is a good way to avoid the fighting and killing in this secret realm.

"White Wolf, this grass carries the scent of my fox clan." Ah Hu reached out to pluck the green grass.

The talisman in the little fox king's hand was ready to explode at any moment, yet some demon could recognize her invisibility technique.
What is this fox demon's cultivation level? Ninth or tenth rank?
Shen Suiren was also very nervous. She could teleport people out of the secret mansion, but she couldn't use the external formations to teleport them back.

After all, they had only just mastered the array within the secret palace, and hadn't yet figured out the entire secret realm.

"Don't make a move, or he'll catch you."

You drop two jade boxes and use an escape talisman. "A preemptive strike doesn't necessarily kill; it might even make you the first to be caught."

At this moment, Shen Suiren could not discern the demon cultivator's true cultivation level, so she used her divine soul to send a telepathic message to the Little Fox King.

"Alright." In a flash, the Little Fox King activated the Escape Talisman, startling the demon cultivator: "White Wolf, it's a Celestial Fox!"
"I'm not picking lotus anymore." Before Ah Hu finished speaking, she had already flown away, completely disappearing from the scene.

The white wolf and another demon cultivator, the golden-feathered eagle, couldn't catch up with it. "Ever since Ah Hu heard that a nine-tailed fox had entered the secret realm, she has been distracted for several days."

The Golden Feathered Eagle didn't give it its all. "If he doesn't come looking, let's go. In a few more days, once we've collected enough spiritual herbs and minerals, the cultivators who come in will fight even more fiercely than they are now."

I only want to cultivate properly to the tenth level; I don't want to get involved in the deal between the Demon Court and the Taiyuan Sect.

"But I'm afraid Ah Hu will fall into a trap." After all, they grew up together, and the white wolf couldn't bear to abandon his little friend.

“He won’t. If he can’t catch up, he’ll turn back.” The golden-feathered eagle didn’t even glance at the map the white wolf had picked up, and flew away in a flash.

Not seeing the white wolf for a long time, he returned and said, "Of all the treasure maps that have been passed down among cultivators throughout history, very few are genuine."

Then, he snatched it, glanced at it, and with a whoosh, spread one arm and transformed into wings, sending the "treasure map" flying far away.

Shen Suiren narrowed his eyes at him, instantly alerting the other man: "Who's spying?"

She quickly looked away and searched for the Little Fox King among the images.

The two had a spiritual connection, and she quickly found and saw Ah Hu, who was only a hundred feet away. She caught up with the half-invisible Little Fox King.

"A-Luan, use the Thousand-Mile Teleportation Talisman."

"Why is he chasing me? He probably wants to kill me and take my life essence. What a despicable guy." As the little fox king ran, he patted the teleportation talisman on his body, which immediately began to flash with spiritual light.

She gave Ah Hu a deep look, gave him the middle finger, and disappeared into the light of the talisman.

"What does that mean?" Ah Hu didn't understand. Now that her cultivation was suppressed, she couldn't stop the Little Fox King's teleportation.

Shen Suiren understood immediately, but she neither shook her head nor laughed, because after activating several array patterns, no Little Fox King was flying away within ten thousand miles.

She calculated the teleportation time of the teleportation talisman, and quickly cast another spell to magnify the eight real-time images on the wall several times over.

Only in the most inconspicuous spot did they find the little fox king huddled in a large patch of sand.

"A-Luan?" Shen Suiren's attention was entirely focused on the little fox king, and she didn't care about anyone else.

"Little Fox King? Wake up quickly." If she doesn't wake up in another 15 minutes, she will teleport herself to pick her up.

"Hiss, there are fire ants biting me from below." The little fox king was too ashamed to move, how could a dignified celestial fox be bitten by a third-tier ant?

Although she crushed the fire ants immediately.

Shen Suiren inexplicably sensed these words, "...Two hundred miles behind you, there are cultivators searching for treasure."

"How about using the dead fire ant as a clue for the treasure?" "Make the best use of it, sure." The little fox king decisively flew out of the sandbag, bringing with him a bright red fire ant.

She didn't need to teach again at the beginning of the year. She set up another array plate, placing it shallowly on the sandbag. Her spiritual power stirred the fire ants that had exploded, causing them to smash a hole in the activated array light.

Then he placed a jade box by the cave, found a place to crawl under the desert, and admired his masterpiece being discovered.

A cultivator flew by on his sword and saw the dead fire ant and the broken array beneath its head.

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The Demon Court said that there were no demons inside when the secret realm was not open."

He hesitated for a moment, then fired a fireball to test it, and it turned out to be real.

Shen Suiren sighed. There were indeed very few demons in the Northern Mystic Realm, but that didn't mean they didn't exist.

However, they were all low-level demons, equivalent to the Qi Refining stage of humans.

In the eyes of the Great Wilderness Demon Court, demons below the third or fourth rank are probably not considered part of the demon race.

This cultivator was too slow and his magic involved wielding a sword, so I was afraid of being tricked.

Unfortunately, the Little Fox King was nearby, and fearing he wouldn't fall for the trick, he used an illusion.

This time, a gray shadow was caught off guard by the cultivator and struck by his sword. The array of light flashed a few times, revealing several jade boxes inside. He turned his spiritual power and the sword light cut off a corner of one of the jade boxes.

Shen Suiren couldn't see any illusions here, but she could clearly see the cultivator take out the jade box, open it, and then carefully look at the picture inside.

After a long pause, he said to himself, "A secret treasure chamber? Let's look for it?"

With that, he propelled his flying sword away.

"Sigh, this person is stingy and won't distribute the map to others." The Little Fox King's intuition was always accurate.

Shen Suiren nodded in agreement: "Why don't we just take the map and scatter it around instead of setting up any more formations?"

"If maps are everywhere, people won't believe it anymore."

"It's alright, I can handle it." The little fox king was also confident.

So, the two of them spent the rest of their time setting up makeshift formations everywhere, stuffing jade boxes and treasure maps inside.

They were indeed discovered very quickly, and a team was formed to search for them.

Wo Xiang and his two companions were teleported to the vicinity of the snow-capped mountain, where they soon discovered that Golden Core cultivators were gathered on the snow-covered mountaintop, engaged in a chaotic battle of varying sizes.

He said, "It's too strange. Why were we teleported here?"

One of the Sword Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators asked, "Prime Minister, is there any magic array at the bottom of the mountain that was blasted up ahead?"
I probed there, but there was nothing there. How could these Golden Core cultivators not be able to see me?

"Greedy, they all wanted to go in and take the treasure."

But..." As soon as the other sword sect Nascent Soul cultivator opened his mouth, he was surprised to see that a mountain behind the snow mountain had been blasted away by the magic of a group of fools, leaving no peak.

Suddenly, an ice lake appeared there, with unusually active ice spiritual energy.

"Not good, retreat quickly!" Wo Xiang shouted, ruining Shen Suiren's plan to trap over a hundred people.

Because among the more than one hundred humans and demons in the battle, there were already clever people who saw the three flying away and quickly retreated as well.

Shen Suiren had no choice but to quickly trap the remaining dozens of people with the secret formation. The exposed ice lake on the mountain cracked open several times.

The immense suction force buried the group of human cultivators and demon cultivators in the icy lake, freezing them into ice sculptures in the blink of an eye.

Far away, the cultivators who had escaped this calamity cheered with immense relief, thankful that they had run fast.

But Shen Suiren was very unhappy, so he manipulated the array patterns again, causing the three Wo Xiangs in flight to be sucked into the bottom of a river from mid-air.

Just then, the Rain God sent a message saying that Elder Wo Xiang was trapped by the magic array and could not receive it.

The former, not receiving a reply, frowned repeatedly. "Young friend Shen, young friend Yao, the Fire Qilin just sent me a message. He received the request from the beginning of the year and has now completed it."

"Have you managed to contact her communication jade these past two days?"

"No."

"Then, may I borrow the communication talisman she left for you?"
Then, following the direction Fu had taken, they found her.

“Uncle-Master, this method is wonderful. I’ve thought of it before.” Yun Chuan strongly supported it. He had been away for a long time without any news from Sui Chuyi, and he was also feeling a bit uneasy.

He added, "It seems that Juexing and Fellow Daoist Nie both possess this item."

The four of them shook their heads in unison, "After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, we stopped using paper talismans for sound transmission a long time ago."

Yun Chuan asked, "Aren't you worried about her?"

"Yun Chuan, why don't you search everyone's storage rings?"
"If we can find her using this method, how could we not get in touch with her?" Cheng Zhishun could tell that he was deliberately cooperating with Si Yu.

Yun Chuan wanted to argue further, but Si Yu Xingjun stopped him by raising his hand and said, "At the beginning of the year, it might be in the Northern Mysterious Palace."

Recently, secret treasure maps have appeared in various places, and the struggle between humans and demons has intensified.

"I don't care who among you can contact her, tell her not to use the great formation to kill so many people again, lest she incur divine punishment."

He looked around at his disciples, and none of them revealed anything in their eyes. Sigh, is it because the teachings of the various sects are too good?
Soon after, Shen Tinglu secretly sent a message to Shen Suiren.

However, the latter was unable to reply immediately because the communication jade talisman was being interfered with by something and could only be used during the day.

At this moment, she had already trapped many cultivators, including demon cultivators, with her array.

However, upon closer inspection, she found that none of the nearly seven or eight hundred resembled a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Ah Luan, how long will it take you to reach the Water Curtain Cave?"

"Turn around and don't go through the woods ahead; I can't see where you are right now."

"It's almost dawn, do we still need to distribute the map again?"

"No need, I'm going to pick you up. I feel uneasy, you should change your route."

"Relax, I'm at the seventh level, while you're just a Foundation Establishment cultivator. You should just stay put..." The little fox king's voice stopped abruptly as she flew into complete darkness, where she couldn't even see a shadow in the image.

Shen Suiren hadn't mastered all the formations, and her biggest fear was that something might happen to the Little Fox King along her invisible flight path.

However, his soul could not sense her at all, and after calling out to her for a quarter of an hour, he still received no response.

She ran upstairs to the second floor to retrieve the communication jade, then used the teleportation array to send herself to the place where the Little Fox King had just passed.

As soon as he landed, a sword light attacked from behind.

Shen Suiren rolled on the spot and then unleashed a thunderbolt.

The opponent swiftly dodged and once again unleashed a sword strike from afar.

The moment she burrowed underground, a set of Star Moon Wheels flew out, disrupting the opponent's ability to retract their attack.

Unfortunately, although the opponent was affected, the sword's power was strong enough that the golden spiritual light instantly cleaved a pit in the spot where she had escaped.

No matter how fast Shen Suiren ran, she was still slightly affected by the aftershocks, and her opponent accurately predicted the direction she fled, chasing after her and slashing with sword after sword.

She couldn't afford to be too passive, so she grabbed the Deadly Blade and charged out of the ground with a horizontal slash. Countless wood elemental energies were mobilized, forming a huge blade of light that slashed towards her opponent.
